Whispering Verse

A few hundred meters away, at the east corner of Saint Teresa Square, Priest Augustus and Dr. Schneider walked into the square together. They walked along the side of the street that was not illuminated by street lights, and the two looked calm:

"Doctor, I am here to send an alchemy item to Xia De. I owe him this. What are you doing here? Tonight this area is closely monitored by the church. I came here when I was discovered. Oh, I must give Xia De a surprise this time."

Priest Augustus asked softly, the old priest seemed to be in a good mood tonight.

"A message came from the college at seven o'clock, asking me to monitor this area tonight and report what happened after tonight. The best place to monitor is of course Xia De's house. He should lend me the window The college also told me that this area is being closely monitored by the church tonight, and it took me a lot of effort to get here."

Dr. Schneider nodded and said, then turned to look behind him:

"When I came from that street just now, I saw someone fighting in the sky. What happened tonight?"

Although Cleric Augustus didn't know about the "Pyroxene of the Wise", he knew something about the "Chosen One". He didn't want the doctor to get involved in this kind of thing, so he just shook his head.

The destination of both of them was Xia De's house, but they had just crossed the square and approached the fountain in the center of the square, they frowned at the same time, and looked in the direction of No. 6 Saint Teresa Square.

Two strangers, a man and a woman, were peeping in from the window on the first floor of No. 6 at this moment. Obviously the two strangers were in this position just now, but the doctor and the priest only noticed them at this time.

Bill Schneider and Rat Augustus frowned deeply.

Silver Cross Avenue, in the closed room on the second floor of the Prophet Association, there was silence in the dark, and everyone was staring at the tabletop under the white light. Move in the direction of Teresa Square:

"It seems that my luck is not bad tonight. Although Mr. Hamilton was unable to detect the whereabouts of [The Thief Jack], he has every reasonable reason to go to Saint Teresa Square."

"But what's the use of luck once? [Stalker in the Night] Chogory Deus and [Ms. Glamor] Lydia Pengelo have now arrived at the Place Saint-Derain, but your Hamilton But it's still on the road."

The professor of the Truth Society said in a relaxed tone.

On the map representing the nearby area on the desktop, the two puppets have already entered the area of ​​Saint Teresa Square. The detected [Thief Jack] was moving quickly in the square, making the last investigation before doing it like an ordinary thief.

"With good luck the first time, there may be a second time."

Miss Green behind Iluna said softly:

"At present, although your story characters are indeed strong, they are not strong enough to win. No matter how powerful a first-ring warlock is, they are still afraid of bullets. Otherwise, why didn't you manipulate the characters and attack Xia De at the beginning of the story? What about Hamilton?"

Her analysis reassured everyone present, and Professor Anse pointed to his companion:

"Guess why I want to act with this gentleman, Mr. Angs, a follower of the great [Mr. Doom]."

The young cultist looked up at the crowd, kissed the emblem of the cult again and asked softly:

"Professor, should I act?"

"Yes."

The middle-aged professor nodded:

"The story can't always be smooth sailing, it's time for some twists and turns."

"What are you going to do?"

Iluna asked very vigilantly, and the cultist took off his holy emblem pendant from his chest, and put this magical item with blasphemy elements on the table:

"Keeper of Secrets, I dedicate this holy emblem to you in exchange for all the characters in the story suffering a bad luck."

The figure in the black robe raised his right arm, and with a light wave of the wide hem on the holy emblem, the holy emblem disappeared.

The professor explained to Iluna very satisfied:

"Only a few forces can directly interfere with the game, which includes the holy symbols of the gods related to fate, stories, and wisdom. The additional doom that is called for the story will only happen things that can reasonably happen in the story scene, and will not Gods, angels, and relics suddenly appeared."

"Yes, the vice-chairman of the [Truth Society] thought in advance that the characters chosen by the church would be superior, so we arranged relics that were strictly contained at various nearby intersections in advance. When bad luck came , fate will bring those relics to the verge of getting out of control, our characters know how to deal with those specific relics, but that Mister Hamilton..."

The cultist with messy hair smiled, and his tawny teeth looked particularly terrifying.

The bearded captain of the Church of Mechanics wanted to curse again, but Mr. Modelo of the Church of Peace squeezed his fist. Dorothy was protecting Adelina, and was about to exchange with Rezia again, telling Shad that there would be a relic attacking him, but Iluna spoke at this moment:

"A friend of mine once told me many times that manipulating fate will only be played by fate. The bad luck brought by malicious calls will only lead oneself into the wrong path of fate."

She picked up the parchment that recorded Shade's information, and the voice of the black-robed secret keeper sounded from the darkness in all directions, describing the next direction of the story:

"The night was as cold as water, and on the street on a winter night, [mortal luck] Shade Hamilton was still thinking about the thief's target. He seemed to hear the terrible whisper of doom in a trance, and when he looked up again, he found himself Has been surrounded by darkness.

[Luck of mortals] Encountered a clerical-level relic [crowd-eating cat] in the dark night, the abandoned pet cat died alone in the garbage dump, and the maliciousness that gathered condensed into a curse of cats in the dark night. Due to the unexpected event of bad luck, Shade Hamilton could not escape in any way. Now he conducts a mental test and rolls dice. If the number is lower than 200, he will immediately go crazy because of the sight of the relic. "

"200? But Mr. Hamilton is just an ordinary man..."

Someone in the darkness said, Dorothy and Adelina were not nervous at all, but Princess Margaret, who was close to them, bit her lip and panicked. Although she didn't know why Xia De became an "ordinary person", she didn't want this capable knight who had helped her to die here, or to reveal her identity here.

lang lang lang~

The number cast was 25. Iluna unfolded Shad's parchment up and down. Although the number was small, she didn't look panicked at all:

"Number 25 points, symbol bonus 10 points, character trait 'Cat Affinity' bonus 76."

No one doubts this. Although Xia De doesn't take Mia out often, there are many people who have seen the cat. At least in Lakeview Manor, many people have seen it, so people know that Xia De Very attractive to cats.

"Character's special ability..."

Dorothy, Princess Margaret, and Adelina held their breath simultaneously, expecting her to read the revealing statement.

"Cat training, a bonus of 3 is provided in this judgment..."

She glanced at the instructions on the parchment and rolled the dice again, this time fifty-three. Even though the people at the table knew that they should not make a sound at this time, they still couldn't help sighing.

Iluna's eyes scanned the unreadable traits such as "extraordinary creature affinity", "the bond between the moon and the cat", "the basic blessing of the time task-life friendly", "the shock of the first fire" and so on:

"The character's special ability 'cat training' bonus, 53×3=159, totaling 270, the judgment is passed."

"Wait, isn't that an exaggeration?"

The young cultist who invoked doom immediately questioned:

"It is indeed possible for ordinary human beings to master some very powerful skills through long-term training and their own unique talents. I would not be surprised if Shade Hamilton had a 3-fold multiplier on gambling cards, but why did he The cat training skill has a 3 times bonus factor?"

The keeper ignored the question, but instead, Iluna snorted with a serious face:

"It just goes to show that Hamilton chose the wrong job. Maybe he should work in a circus, so he can keep cats and play cards. Hamilton's cat is orange, and the tiger is orange. They are very similar."

The three princesses in the darkness suppressed their smiles.

Iluna went on to add:

"No matter how proficient in cat training in reality, it is absolutely impossible to rely on the mental influence of this evasive relic, but the story is so magical. I should thank you, if Hamilton is not the story character, he is really going crazy at this moment."

Iluna didn't read out the special bonus value, and the value of many items directly exceeded the 200 required for judgment. For example, the special state "Blessing of Thousands of Souls" has a bonus of 200, and the souls trapped on the edge of life and death in Xikar Mountain, even if each of them just gives Shad a little blessing, the huge mental resistance formed is quite amazing. As for the fourth occupation "Time Investigator" other than "Detective", "Correspondence Student" and "Agent", the special nature of the occupation itself provides an additional 275 points of bonus for this judgment.

In addition, in the [Legendary] column of the parchment, the three special titles "God Caller of Tobesk", "Mermaid Buster of Coldwater Harbor" and "Enemy of the Undead of Fort Midhill" provide Each additional 300 mental resistance points, plus thaumaturgy and spells that require rolling dice to determine the value, as well as scattered other special bonuses, if Shade's judgment this time really counts the total value, it will break through 3,000 It's very easy.

A seventeen-year-old girl has no idea how to lose.

"He's just not crazy, but he's still being affected by the relic. Don't you think the relic won't take the initiative to attack him? He's just an ordinary human being, and fate won't always favor him."

The professor of [Truth Association] reminded, his voice fell, and the voice under the hood came out:

"The document-level relic [crowd-eating cat] needs to continuously pass the soul defense and physical defense to launch an attack..."

It suddenly stopped talking, and everyone was surprised by this, but no one dared to urge it.

This eerie silence lasted for half a minute before the broken story followed up:

"The clerical-level relic [Crowd-eating Cat] has receded. It is obviously not a good idea to murder an ordinary person who is friendly with cats on a leisurely winter night. Maybe they sensed that there was another terrifying force nearby, so they receded [Crowd-eating cat] re-entered the containment state from the out-of-control state. [Mortal luck] Shade Hamilton’s misfortune was lifted, and he continued to the direction of Saint Teresa Square.”

"ha?"

The cultist opened his mouth slightly~www.readwn.com~ He never expected such a thing to happen. Dorothy breathed a sigh of relief and did not inform Xia De of the current situation for the time being.

"What terrible power is in this area?"

Miss Green asked softly to the old Mr. Modelo, who shook his head slightly:

"This is the center of Tobesk, how could there be terrible power...I understand, it seems that there has been a fight nearby, that street is on the edge of the story site, maybe it is an unknown nearby The ring warlocks had a dispute with the church. Or some kind of relic they carried disturbed the [crowd-eating cat].”

It's anyone's guess what happened, but apparently the young detective got lucky.
